Chemical Industry

Nitrogen is used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Covering, cleaning and explosion protection are just a few examples. For example, nitrogen is used in airflow shredders for crushing and grinding pharmaceutical products. In this case, the pressure is used to press the gas into the mill at high speed. The material circulating in the mill collides with the grinder wall. This process causes the material to break down into ultrafine particles. Nitrogen is used as abrasive gas and as an inert gas to effectively prevent the resulting dust from exploding in the environment.
